AMA ✅Superbike Championship runner-up Blake Yo🌼ung is make his MotoGP debut, riding for Attack Performance as a wild-card in the three US rounds.

Young takes over the Attack CRT ride from Steve R𝄹app, who debuted the Kawasaki-powered machine at Laguna Seca and Indianapolis last season.

Rapp didn't qualify for the US GP but finished 15th at Indy - ahead of fellow wild-card Aaron Yates (GPTech) - which then became 14t෴h after a post-race penalღty for James Ellison.

25-year-old Young, still unsigned for the AMA after losing his Yoshimura Suzuki seat, told CycleNews.com:

"[Attack] gave me a call and asked if I'd be interested...🤪 at this point I'm pretty much interested in anything and I think this is a good opportunity. To be in that [MotoGP] paddock and to learn from those guys... I'm fairly young and that's something I've always wanted to do. Maybe CRT is the future and I'd like🐟 to be on an American team at the American rounds."

♔GPTech is also due to return for the three US events - the new round at Austin, Texas on April 21 joining Lag♛una Seca and Indianapolis.

Nicky Hayden, Ben Sp🌊ies and Colin Edwards will again represent America during the full Mo🔯toGP season.
